& Boozy
78 Cocktail Recipes for Romance Readers
by B. Daniels
As much as reading is an individual experience, there are times when gathering with friends and bonding over books can be just as beautiful, if not more so, than the stories themselves!
Between signings, intimate dinners, book club meetings, and the like, there are so many opportunities we have where we can bring our love of reading to the next level. Bookish & Boozy is a romance reading inspired, interactive, and fun way to raise your glass to your favorite reads, drown your sorrows over that wicked cliffhanger, or cheers to the well-deserved HEA.
A lighthearted, and often punny, look at cocktails themed around our favorite tropes, Bookish & Boozy will give you all sorts of ideas on your next drink to bring to the party, new post-worthy content, or the drink of the night while you binge read the newest release.

Book Status – where can I find it?
Unfortunately, Bookish & Boozy is not available … yet. Currently I am deep in the “querying trenches” and trying to find an agent, and then a publishing home. The proposals are out (and will continue to go out) in hopes of finding an agent that loves Bookish & Boozy as much as we do. If you know an agent that might be interested (or are one) send them my way! You can contact me here.

How can you help?
Since Bookish & Boozy is technically a nonfiction book, agents are looking for reach and platform size above almost everything else. The biggest way to help Bookish & Boozy get published is simply engagement. Follow, share (or re-post) my posts, spread the word. Honestly, even just signing up for my newsletter goes a long way in helping me show agents that people are interested in the book. Thank you for your help in making my dream come true.
